Get ready for a blast from the past
You can successfully date a person by what childrens’ TV they enjoyed. Fans of Aquila are generally 24-years-old now, Demon Head Master? Around 26. Anyone who really enjoyed Knighthood; they’re approaching their 32th birthday, no doubt.
That’s why loads of 32-year-olds will be logging on to YouTube soon, as the nostalgia-fix just becomes too much to bear. Knighthood is coming back to a browser near you – just for one special episode. The show is being recorded in the original Knightmare Studio in Norwich.
"With more than half of our top 20 non-music channels dedicated to geek culture, YouTube has become a top destination for fans everywhere to create, share and watch geek content," says Danielle Tiedt, vice president of marketing for YouTube. "We're excited to shine a spotlight on this global community during Geek Week and debut all-new videos and series created by some of our most popular channel partners." (via The Guardian)
Hey, watch season one, episode one of Kighthood right here
Knightmare was a British TV programme broadcast on CITV from September 1987 to November 1994, but it wasn’t just a popular kids’ show, it was innovative, and employed blue screen chroma key, a concept borrowed from weather forecasts, which let the shoe break the realms of reality with virtual aspects – big spiders in dungeons - on screen. YouTubers DanIsNotOnFire, AmazingPhil, EmmaBlackery and Ashens will star as the episode's team, alongside Isy Suttie - Dobby in Peep Show - and Lavender Brown from Harry Potter, played by Jessie Cave.
